Thank-You Gift Baskets
A thank-you basket should be in proportion to the favor. A neighbor who watered plants and a mentor who changed your career deserve different gifts, and matching the gift to the person shows you noticed what they did.

What makes a great thank-you basket
- Size the gift to the favor; $35 to $75 covers most thank-yous.
- Lean into what they love: chocolate, coffee, savory snacks.
- Say exactly what you’re thankful for in the note.
- Send promptly, within a week or two of the favor.
- For a household, pick items the whole family can share.
Mistakes to avoid
Don’t overspend in a way that makes the recipient feel indebted, and avoid generic baskets when you know their tastes. A specific note matters as much as the basket.
How the concierge makes this faster
Instead of scrolling hundreds of near-identical baskets, write one sentence the way you’d describe the person to a friend. The concierge pulls out who it’s for, the occasion, interests, dietary needs and budget, ranks basket styles against them, and tells you in one line why each pick fits. Then you buy from the retailer directly. It all runs in your browser and nothing you type is stored.
